Dog alert sticker

Awareness: The sign informs people of a potential risk associated with encountering a dog, allowing them to take precautions or avoid the area.

Deterrence: It can discourage trespassers or burglars from entering the property.

Legal Precaution (Variable): While many owners hope the sign will protect them from liability in case of an incident, its effectiveness varies significantly depending on local and state laws (e.g., "strict liability" vs. "one-bite" rules). In some jurisdictions, the sign might even be interpreted as the owner's acknowledgment of the dog's aggressive tendencies, potentially strengthening a victim's negligence claim.
